Product Features

SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex. SLR cameras use a prism to reflect the exact image as seen through the lens and so offers a more accurate viewfinder. SLR cameras have detachable lenses offering greater flexibility if you wish to take a variety of different photographs.

Compact cameras have a built in lens and an ‘above lens’ viewfinder which is less accurate but they are often cheaper, more sleekly designed and easier to carry anywhere with you to capture that moment perfectly without having to fiddle with complex settings or a bag full of lenses.

If a photo is taken at a slow shutter speed, or at a long focal length, the effects of ‘hand shake’ will be amplified. Some cameras come with built-in image stabilisation which is designed to act against this to produce sharper images.
It’s great for low light shots without a tripod, like at a gig.

This is the longest exposure your camera will take. The longer you take a photo for, the more light is let in and the more motion is captured.
Long shutter speeds can give fantastic, artistic results.
Try photographing the night sky at 30s or longer to see how the rotation of the Earth causes the stars to curve through the scene.

16.1 effective megapixels of pure imaging power yields the high-resolution images you desire. The combined continuous shooting capabilities of this Backside illumination CMOS image sensor optimize performance when shooting at night to deliver beautiful results and reproduce even the fine details.

Manual and custom settings for creating your envisioned image

The dedicated Mode dial provides easy access to the P/S/A/M exposure modes, while its User setting mode labeled “U” lets you save your favorite settings for use at any time. Often-used functions can be assigned to the new Function button on the face of the camera for quick access. And, there’s an independent Command dial that provides finer creative control over settings while shooting, as well as convenient functions during playback and menu operation. In addition, COOLPIX Picture Control lets you select a profile defining sharpness, saturation, color adjustment and other settings before shooting that help achieve the ideal result.
